Chapter 234: Change and Battle to the Death

After the battle meeting ended, Shikaku had a solemn expression.

The reason was that the team he sent to intercept Kumogakure's supplies had completely lost contact.

After crippling Kumogakure's frontline troops, it wasn't that he didn't want to pursue the victory, but that Konoha was also dead and injured.

Under the premise that the victory was decided, of course, he had to choose to minimize the losses.

Otherwise, under the desperate counterattack of Kumogakure's frontline troops, the casualties on their side would definitely increase by a step, and this was a situation that neither Shikaku nor Sarutobi wanted to see.

Therefore, under Sarutobi's orders, Shikaku chose to trap the remaining people of Kumogakure here, coupled with harassment tactics, to make Raikage submit, and take the initiative to send people to negotiate so that these people would not be buried here.

But Kumogakure's reaction was unsettling!

It was clear that they were at the end of their rope, and every day the wounded died in their sleep, but the remnants of Komugakure's front line gritted their teeth and held on.

He did not take the initiative to launch a counterattack, nor did he have any thoughts of admitting defeat and returning to the village.

Thus, Shikaku deduced that Kumogakure's logistics supplies might already be on the way, and they might even send reinforcements.

However, after such a long period of war, how much strength could Kumogakure squeeze out to support the frontlines? First, there was a question mark.

However, if this batch of supplies was successfully delivered to the hands of Kumogakure's frontline troops, then this war would definitely continue to fight, and perhaps they would have to pay a greater price to chase away the enemy.

Therefore, Shikaku decisively gave the order to send nearly a hundred people to go around Shimogakure and Yugakure, wanting to destroy this batch of supplies, completely cutting off the hopes of Kumogakure and the others at the front line!

At the same time, he also made two preparations. The army kept pressing forward, pushing the front line to the limit that Kumogakure could tolerate, and was ready to attack at any time.

If the logistics route of Kumogakure's supply line was successfully cut off, then it would naturally be better. Not only did it preserve the strength of his own side, but it also completely made it impossible for Kumogakure to make a comeback.

Even if Raikage wanted to redeem these people, he would have to pay a greater price.

However, if something unexpected happened, Shikaku would immediately attack and try to destroy Kumogakure's frontline before the enemy's reinforcements and supplies arrived!

As time passed, the hundred-man army that had not been able to send out the information on time probably had an accident.

"Close combat first unit, second unit, prepare for defense!"

"Combat unit, fiercely attack! First, you must stop the enemy's attack momentum!"

After receiving the order, Mikawa immediately began to command the combat unit to launch the attack.

Moreover, unlike last time, this combat unit was made to attack the main force from the beginning, and even chose relatively powerful combined ninjutsu. It seemed that there was no intention of saving chakra at all.

As for the first close-combat unit, the second unit no longer charged to kill the enemy, but instead turned into a defensive line, ready to block the attack of the enemy.

Kumogakure Ninja did not expect that Konoha would make such an arrangement. It was too late for him to retreat now. He could only bite the bullet and rush forward with a frightened face. He even increased his speed. As long as he could rush into Konoha's group before the ninjutsu hit him, there was still hope.

However, Konoha's unit arrived first on the battlefield, but they had already quietly set up the Explosion Tag.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Although only a small part of the Explosion Tag was set up due to time constraints, Kumogakure's people still rushed in and the formation was immediately destroyed.

Then at this time, under the command of Mikawa, Konoha's combat unit immediately turned into a precision ninjutsu machine, meticulously throwing one ninjutsu after another towards the panicked enemy vanguard forces.

Kumogakure, who wanted to seize the initiative, was instantly hit head-on by Konoha!

And because of the distance, Kumogakure's combat unit had to advance a bit more, and then they would be able to threaten Konoha's combat unit. Therefore, this time difference directly led to a large number of people on Kumogakure's side.

It could be said that in the game between the fingers of both sides, Dodai was completely at a disadvantage.

Moreover, it was worth mentioning that in this head-on confrontation, Aoba and the other two were impressively staying on Konoha's side, and were ready to participate in the battle at any time.

Because there was no longer any need to attack Kumogakure's camp. This battle was a real battle!

Speaking of which, this was the first time that they had personally experienced the chaotic battle of thousands of ninjas. The shock of the scene caused their eyes to widen and they were speechless.

However, they were not frightened to the point that their legs went soft. Instead, their blood was boiling and they were eager to try.

What a joke. They had experienced so many life and death tests. Even if the scene at this moment was really grand and tragic, it was impossible to scare them so easily!
